And how can you fail to see the contradiction in that phrase? How can anyone 
fail to see that the phrase is nonsense? It is an absurdly impossible idea. 
How can anything be stable and constantly changing at the same time? It 
simply makes no sense.

DM: Well an eddy in a stream for example, or the human body that exchanges 
chemicals with its environment all the time, or atoms that exchange
electrons all the time, or s stone sitting on a rock, but racing through 
space on a planet and through the dimension of time. I mean everything is
changing all the time, and yet there are islands of stability, if you look 
at things synchrionically, but the diachronic is always there. Not too hard
to grasp really, if you have done any science! -a fairly positive and 
consistent approach to understanding how processes really work. The great
things about SQ, science, maths, quantity rather than quality, is that you 
can focus on parts rather than wholes and parts can be seen as stable,
the big picture, the long view is that everything is changing, the cosmos of 
one hell of a dangerous flux, the stability is finite, temporary and just
found in little islands. Due to DQ there is change, SQ emerges, but SQ also 
certainly dis-emerges, such is DQ giver and taker of SQ.
